Other Ways to Donate

Your annual gift of $500 helps underwrite the cost of providing ongoing volunteer support and services to one of the seniors served by CAREGIVERS. You will receive a biannual newsletter and invitations to special events throughout the year.

Corporate Matching Gifts

Many companies will match charitable gifts by employees. Don’t forget to ask your company for matching gift forms. In some cases, corporate matches can double the impact of your contribution!
